+modest
+------
+
+"modest" is a modest e-mail program, based on Philip van Hoofs *tinymail*.
+tinymail is an effort to ease the writing of email programs, in particular
+for small devices.
+
+And while tinymail can support just about anything, we are using it's 
+*libcamel* backend for mail protocol implementation.
